Solution
If print quality does not improve by standard Print Head Cleaning, try Print Head Deep Cleaning, which is a more powerful process. Note that cleaning the Print Head causes used ink to be absorbed in the ink absorber. Print Head Deep Cleaning consumes more ink than standard Print Head Cleaning, so perform this procedure only when necessary.
1. Make sure that the machine is turned on.
2. Start Print Head Deep Cleaning.
(1) Press the Menu button repeatedly until MAINTENANCE appears.
(2) Press the

See [ Printing the Nozzle Check Pattern ].
(2) If the problem is not resolved, perform Print Head Deep Cleaning again.
